The recent round of rumors stem from this post at Apple Insider and were strengthened with an article from the Financial Times.

We talk around the details that came from these two post focusing on a possible 10″ tablet-style device focused on media, home-use and running the iPhone OS. Is there a market for it or are Apple simply going to create a market.

At the end of the podcast, each member is asked if they want to buy one. There’s an interesting response!

These new SSDs are using the same controller we tested on the RunCore Pro IV 2.5" SATA II SSD. That means that even if you have slower PATA bus you get big performance boost on real life use as these SSDs are designed to speed up random small file read and write speeds.

" Pro IV SSD line up will begin shipping throughout the month of August and will soon appear on www.RunCore.com and all online Authorized Reseller online shops for preorder. Retail pricing will be $179.99, $289.99, $499.99, and $899.99 respectively for 32GB, 64GB, 128GB and 256GB drives. "

GottaBeMobile: For Touch enthusiasts who are looking for a Netbook sized device, the T91 could very easily fill the bill.

NotebookReview: Is the Eee PC T91 a better choice than lower-priced netbooks with bigger screens and better specs? Possibly

CNET: Small and light; well-done custom touch-screen interface; good battery life.

LAPTOP: This tablet netbook sets itself apart with an attractive touch interface, but it’s held back by slow performance, a small hard drive, and cramped keyboard.

You get plenty of info from those reviews, but I think most of them forgot the main factor: mobility. T91 is the smallest netbook available, has durable SSD, touchscreen, 3G/GPS on new version etc.. all super for mobility.

I bought one for me, so expect some heavy testing, modding and pretty long videos about this "hoping it can replace my 900a" convertible netbook.

Many of you have asked me to do NC10 3G mod, but as I don't have it and no one has wanted to do it remotely; here is the next best thing.

On many other netbooks and laptops you can't swap wifi card with 3G card, but on Samsung NC10 you can.

Basso tested and it's working fine. He also got a really small usb wifi dongle for wifi sessions, but if you mostly need your netbook while mobile, you don't need wifi anymore.

I would suggest a small hole to the bottom for easy SIM card swapping... or just taking the soldering gun to your hand and solder the 3G card straight to USB and power lines like I did with Dell Mini 9 Maybe Basso will do it later...
